SAFETY SEAT, NOTABLY FOR A CHILD
A safety seat of the type having a seat part that is kept at a distance from the ground by a support system. The seat includes a detection system and signalling system, the latter being able to go off when it is shaken and/or unintentionally inclined.
VEHICLE OCCUPANCY ALERT SYSTEM AND METHOD
A passenger seat occupancy alert system for a vehicle is disclosed herein. The passenger seat occupancy alert system for a vehicle includes at least one sensor, a detection means, an in-vehicle display device, a speaker, and a controller. The passenger seat occupancy alert system is useful for sensing passenger occupancy of a vehicle and producing an alert.
Mounted object detection device and vehicle control system
A mounted object detection device includes: a load sensor in which a plurality of sensor parts each configured to detect a load are disposed in a matrix shape; and a controller configured to detect a situation of a mounted object on the load sensor on the basis of an output from the load sensor. The controller: detects a load distribution on a detection region of the load sensor on the basis of an output from the load sensor; discerns which of a person or animal and a thing the mounted object is, on the basis of the load distribution; and when having discerned that the mounted object is a thing, discerns whether or not a person or an animal is mounted on the thing, on the basis of temporal change in the load distribution.
Baby alert car seat alarm—smart car seat
The Baby Alert Car Seat AlarmSmart Car Seat, is a device or smart car seat that detects the presence of a baby or child placed, or secured in a car seat, within the vehicle, before and after the driver of the vehicle has reached his/her destination; and, after the ignition is turned off, alerts the driver of the vehicle that the baby or child remains place or secured in a car seat within the vehicle; or, once the baby or child is placed, or secured in a car seat, within the vehicle, if the ignition is not turned on within a preset time, the Baby Alert Car Seat AlarmSmart Car Seat will alert the driver of the vehicle that a baby or child remains placed or secured in a car seat within the vehicle.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETECTING THE PRESENCE OF NON-SELF-SUFFICIENT OCCUPANTS AT THE BACK SEAT OF VEHICLES
It is herein described a system such of that implemented in a vehicle (1) having front and rear doors (2) (3) provided with door opening sensors (S.sub.M; S.sub.D, S.sub.E) and one indicative sensor (ST) of locked door. A processing unit (4) calculates, by measuring the time the door remains open as well as by the sequence and/or frequency of openings and closings the doors (2, 3) of the vehicle (1), the possibility of a non-self-sufficient occupant have been forgotten inside the vehicle; and controls the actuation of an alarm (A1, A2, Al) in the event of said calculation indicates the possibility of an occupant non-self-sufficient have been forgotten inside the vehicle. The system identifies the possibility of an occupant has been introduced inside the vehicle when the opening time of the rear door is longer than time T1, and identifies the possibility of an occupant has been forgotten in the vehicle by means of the information processing sent by the door sensors.
Universal reminder device
A universal reminder device in the form of a series circuit including a power source, a warning indicator, a pressure-sensitive normally closed momentary switch, and a pressure-sensitive normally open momentary switch.
Vehicle alert system
A vehicle alert system inhibiting a child from being left unattended in a vehicle includes a car seat that is selectively positioned in a vehicle and child is selectively seated in the car seat. A base unit is positioned upon the seat to be sat upon thereby facilitating the base unit to detect weight. The base unit is turned on when the base unit detects weight. A remote unit is carried by the driver of the vehicle. The remote unit is in electrical communication with the base unit. Moreover, the remote unit emits an audible alarm when the remote unit moves beyond a trigger distance from the base unit and the base unit is turned on. In this way the remote unit inhibits the child from being left unattended in the vehicle.
Integrated child safety seat
An infant safety car seat seamlessly and permanently integrated into the bench seat between two adult seats or replacing the adult seats if more than one is incorporated into the vehicle. The child seat is sunken or not below and behind the vehicle bench and seat and safety harnesses are permanently installed to secure an infant in the safety seat. The seat adjusts to allow forward or rearward facing configurations suitable to different ages of the infant, from zero to eight years old. Security features are internally integrated to prevent the incidence of leaving an unbuckled and/or an unattended infant in a vehicle that includes some combination of a scale, hasps sensors in display and video monitor of cameras in screen.
Systems and methods for detecting and warning of the presence or absence of automobile occupant
Provided is a security device, comprising: a sensor that senses a presence in a vehicle and generates a presence signal; an ignition state detection device that detects a state of the vehicle, and generates a status signal; and a rules processor that determines from the presence signal and the status signal whether an alarm or message is to be generated.
CAR SEAT ABANDONMENT PREVENTION SYSTEM
A car seat abandonment prevention system for alarming a driver of the presence of a child within a vehicle by sending a signal to a mobile device includes a vehicle having a driver seat and a back seat. A car seat is removably attached to a base to define a safety seat. A door position sensor is mounted to the vehicle and is activated when a driver positions a driver door of the vehicle in a closed position or in an open position. A seat position sensor is mounted to the safety seat and is activated when the driver attaches the car seat to the base of the safety seat or removes the car seat from the base of the safety seat.
